Chapter 2 The Man in Black

Scotland lowered his head, glanced at the dark red bloodstains hidden among the weeds, raised his head and continued chasing forward.

Perhaps because of the little hesitation before pulling the trigger, the arrow was slightly missed and did not cause fatal damage to the Lin Lu, but the Lin Lu probably couldn't run much farther.

There were many scratches on the trunks around the tree, and a fresh indentation appeared on the weeds on the ground - it should be caused by its lack of physical strength and falling down. There were also hoof prints on the ground...

Scotland stopped and pulled out the dagger from his waist... He was sure that the deer was nearby.

Even herbivores cannot rule out the possibility of a dying counterattack, especially female animals with cubs.

He put one hand on his belt and the other with a dagger. There were many trees and shrubs around him, blocking his sight. The crossbow was not suitable in this case.

There were footsteps and heavy breathing sounds not far away.

Scotland followed the sound carefully and stopped with a big tree. The footsteps stopped on the other side of the trunk, and the gasps continued, but...

The sound doesn't sound like a beast.

He held his breath and stretched out his head...saw a pair of feet.

foot?

Scotland walked over.

A man wearing a hat on his head and couldn't see clearly was sitting on the ground with his back against a tree. A black coat covered with it was cut into pieces by a sharp weapon, revealing many bleeding wounds. He looked very depressed, as if he was about to reach his limit.

Scotland used a branch to lift the man's hat, revealing a slightly terrifying face below - two reptile-like scars penetrated the entire face, and there was a large red scald on the right half of the face.

It's really a face that is so terrible...

At this moment, the sound of people talking came not far away.

"What's going on? This Lin Lu is crazy?"

"Don't worry about it, hurry up and catch up, that ugly monster can't escape much."

"No, Lin Lu is chasing her too tightly!"

"Then fix it quickly."

Then a fight came...

"Ugly"...Is it the person you are talking about?

Scotland turned his head and looked at the man sitting on the ground, and the man happened to open his eyes and look at him.

They were a pair of beautiful eyes, as fascinating as the summer night sky dotted with stars. However, the moment they saw Scotland, the eyes were filled with despair, and then closed again... This time it seemed like they were in a coma.

The sound of fighting stopped and footsteps approached.

If you don't leave, you will obviously be involved in some trouble, just...

Scotland sighed and bent down to help the man up.

"You're lucky."

I have to admit that killing the female Lin Lu still made him feel a little guilty, so he needed to atone for his sins.

The unexpected thing under the black coat was a smaller body, which saved Scotland, who had originally planned to carry the other party, saved a lot of trouble. He carried the man in black on one shoulder, held it with one hand and placed the other on his belt. With a slight "puff", he disappeared.

Shortly after Scotland left, three people came here. One of them glanced at the cage in his hand, raised his hand and pointed in a direction. The three of them chased in that direction, and that direction was exactly the direction where Scotland left with the man in black.

...

After escaping for a while, Scotland finally found something wrong.

Judging from the sound coming from behind, the person who followed him should be not good at moving in the forest, and he also noticed that there was no trace left. But strangely, the other party seemed to know the direction of his journey every time, and kept following closely behind, and could not shake it. However, in terms of speed, Scotland was faster, and since the man in black was not heavy, he was still strong enough. If he continued to escape, he would definitely be able to escape, but...

Scotland placed his hand under the nostrils of the man in black... His breathing was gradually weakening. Before, the man had fallen into a coma due to excessive fatigue and excessive blood loss. If he didn't find a place to bandage and stop the bleeding, even if he escaped, he would only save a corpse.

The people behind should have some kind of tracking method, and it seems that the only way to get rid of this.

Thinking of this, Scotland found a hidden branch and squatted down on it, then took out the crossbow, put on the crossbow arrow, held the man in black carrying it on his shoulder with one hand, and held the crossbow steadily with the other hand, adjusting his breathing, and staring at the direction he came.

A faint fragrance penetrated his nostrils. It was a wonderful fragrance, a bit like a flower fragrance, but it was not strong and smelled very comfortable.

It is very suitable for incense... He silently wrote down this, and then continued to stare at the front.

After a while, the bushes were shaking, and then a group of three people ran out. The man in the lead was holding a cage in his hand, and a "buzzing" sound came from it, like the sound of some kind of insect flapping its wings.

There are countless bugs in the world who are good at tracking, so this one should be it.

Thinking of this, Scotland pulled the trigger, the arrow penetrated the cage straight, and the buzzing sound inside stopped.

"Someone!"

"The arrows were shot from there, chase them!"

The three of them reacted very quickly and their movements were extremely agile, but they were still much worse than Scotland, which had lived in the forest for nearly ten years. Therefore, when they arrived, they only saw a branch that was still shaking slightly, but the person had long disappeared.

“There are other people here.”

"Brother, what should I do?"

"Look." The man in the lead, carrying the cage, replied without hesitation.

"But this is a forest. If you encounter a Yuan Beast again..." The herbivorous and seriously injured Lin Lu just now made them in a hurry. If they encounter other people...

"Even if we don't catch that person, we will die somewhere else one day. But if we catch that person, we will no longer have to do such a thing in our next life, and even... we may even be exposed to that world." He couldn't help but show a hint of yearning in his expression, and then looked at the two behind him and asked, "Do you understand what that means?"

The two of them were silent for a while, looked at each other, nodded, and did not leave.

"Look separately, find the signal later, it will be difficult for the other party to mess with." After saying that, the man in the lead threw away the cage in his hand and chose a direction to leave. The remaining two men also chose a direction to look for it.

Only the cage with a hole was left rolling on the ground twice, and it was empty and nothing inside.
